My suggestion is to split this module into two, and stop the implicit import/export of the incomplete instances from Data.Generics. I don't think that this is a good idea.
Could you please elaborate on your reasons?
That's what the rest of that e-mail was supposed to be.
True. But the current situation is even worse: we either get all instances (good and bad) or none
I think you should always get all:
I believe instances really do have to be global.
By the way, is there something somewhere describing the alternate instance that you want to define? Thanks Ian
